Ask HN: What was the last HN submission you favorited before Covid shutdowns?

“Covid Shutdown” date is largely subjective, and I personally demarcate March 15, 2020 as being pre-Covid.

I’ll Start: I wanted to move back into Data Science so I enrolled in Georgia Tech’s masters program. I was very weak in Linear Algerba, so I saved this online textbook for linear algebra to have something to dive deep into during the holidays. https://textbooks.math.gatech.edu/ila/ https://textbooks.math.gatech.edu/ila/ When Covid happened, I had all the time in the world, and forgot about this link until now lol.

February 23, 2020 - Daily life with an Offline laptop: https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2020-02-18-offline-laptop-v2.html https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2020-02-18-offline-laptop-v2.h... And the one just before that was pretty cool too, lots of fun gear animations: February 12, 2020 - Gears: https://ciechanow.ski/gears/ https://ciechanow.ski/gears/ Never did anything special with them, same as most submissions I favorite. It should be noted that I was already freaking out about Covid at this point. I remember going to a writing retreat in early February at a cabin with like 14 other people for two days and being very nervous about it (I almost cancelled).
